Alicat, I'm going to the one in Augusta, Maine at the end of the month and, hopefully, taking classes in fabric manipulation with Rami Kim, quirky applique with Mickey Depre and a stashbasher project with Linda J Hahn. By the end of the weekend I will be able to make exotic bags with a quirky vibe from fabric I already own. How good is that! I've sent off my application form and I'm just waiting for confirmation of my first choice classes.
My husband will go with me and when he's not doing his research and writing, which he can pretty much do anywhere, he will relax by the hotel pool, work out in the gym and meet me for dinner in the evenings. So that should work for both of us. I'm really looking forward to it.
